How is nicotine legal? (feddit.uk)

I just got up and took about 7 big huffs on a vape while making a coffee. 2% strength and my vision went, everything went black I started blacking out against the kitchen counter. Had to kneel down and wait for it to pass before standing up to finish my coffee. Fucked it up in a cloud of confusion and drank a warm milk.

How the fuck is nicotine legal?

I take it you have never taken nicotine in any capacity then. This is not "nic sick" but that "first hit of the day." Happened to me and everyone I knew when i smoked cigs, and when I kicked it for vaping, and when I kicked that for gum, patches, and lozenges. It's lightheadedness caused by replacing all your air with not air AND the head rush of nicotine.

That said OP should kick the habit if they can anyway (:
